Today’s businesses typically have a complex infrastructure, with interdependencies between data and systems that require software changes to be thoroughly vetted before being promoted into the production environment. It’s all too common that a change in functionality and data in one part of an application can break functionality in another.
Manually testing SAP software is time-consuming and error-prone. Improper or inadequate testing can lead to service disruptions or downtime, which has an impact on the business both internally and externally. Employees become frustrated when the systems they use in their roles are out of service. Even worse, a service disruption provides a less-than-optimal customer experience that could ultimately impact the company’s bottom line.
Many organizations are turning to testing as a service to protect against potential programming bugs, release incompatibilities and security vulnerabilities. Automation allows you to test changes every time, without having to wait for manual testing or potentially missing something important during the testing process. It’s the best solution for the modern, agile IT department.
